Data Recovery Tools
Data Recovery Tools: Software tools designed to recover or restore data that has been lost, deleted, corrupted, or made inaccessible. These tools can work on various storage media, such as hard drives, SSDs, memory cards, or even specific files or databases, and are often used after incidents like accidental deletion, hardware failures, or cyber-attacks.
Data remanence
Data remanence: The residual representation of data that remains even after attempts have been made to remove or erase it. It’s a significant concern because it can potentially allow unauthorized access and recovery of sensitive data and is especially relevant when disposing of recycling, or repurposing old hardware.
Data retention monitoring
Data retention monitoring: The process of regularly reviewing and managing stored data to ensure that it is being retained in accordance with relevant policies and regulations. The process involves managing the data lifecycle, ensuring data protection and privacy, verifying data accuracy and availability, and detecting potential unauthorized activities.
Data Security Lifecycle (CSUSAD)
Data Security Lifecycle (CSUSAD): A framework used to ensure the protection of data throughout its entire lifecycle, from creation to destruction. The stages typically include Create, Store, Use, Share, Archive, and Destroy. Each stage is governed by security controls to ensure data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Organizations apply these security measures to mitigate risks associated […]
Data Hiding
Data Hiding: A software development technique specifically applied to object-oriented programming, where the internal object details (data members) are hidden from external users. Data hiding helps maintain object integrity by preventing users from setting object data into an invalid or inconsistent state, enhancing system security, and reducing the likelihood of unauthorized data manipulation.
Data Security
Data Security: The practice of protecting digital data from unauthorized access, corruption, or theft throughout its entire lifecycle. It includes a set of standards and technologies that protect data from intentional or accidental destruction, modification, or disclosure. Data security involves a range of tactics, such as encryption, tokenization, and key management practices that protect data […]
